Chapter title: Somewhere in Konoha

"God Sakura, I swear if I see that guy again, I am going to lose it!" shouts Ino as she walked angrily through the airport with Sakura following close by.

"Ino, I'm sure he didn't mean to call you troublesome," Sakura said. Ino stopped and turned towards her quickly.

"Sakura, I clearly heard him whisper it when he was walking away," Ino screeched so loudly that Sakura had to cover her ears to prevent hearing loss.

"Where's your dad anyways," the blonde haired maiden said as she scavenge the airport floor. She saw numerous men around their late 30's, but none that seem to look similar to her pink haired friend. Sakura helped her friend look around the airport, but stopped once she saw no sign of her father.

"Can we go to the airport gift shop?" Ino asked. A gift shop wasn't really her ideal place to shop especially one that's located in an airport, but boredom got the best of her. Plus, after having that run in with that jerk she needed something to take her mind off it. Sakura knew it too, so she agreed. Rolling and carrying their luggage, they walked steadily to the gift shop located on the other side of the airport. When they got there, they were quite disappointed.

It was a small store that barely held any trinkets or doodads on the shelves and the only worker there was an old lady that was snoring at the cash register.

Ino walked over to one of the shelves with the title "Jewelry" and began browsing. She expected the jewelry to be of bad quality since they were after all, in an airport, but the quality of the earrings she was looking at seemed to be decent.

Slamming five bucks down on the counter, she left with a new pair of earrings.

"SAKURA!" a voice called out and echoed throughout the airport. Turning her head towards the voice, she came face to face with a familiar looking person.

"PAPA!" she cried out as she ran to hug him. She had only grown an inch over the past year and that was not enough to allow her to become taller than her father. Taking a step back, she took a quick glance at her father. He still looked the same since she last saw him, although he looked more worn out and ragged looking.

"You look really tired," Sakura said, "have you not been getting enough sleep?"

Her father shook his head.

"It's nothing to worry about!"

"Papa…" she whispered. He waved his hand dismissing the conversation and that's when he noticed they had company.

"Well, who is this?" he asked. Ino smiled.

"I'm Ino Yamanaka," she explained, "I'm Sakura's friend from Paris." Mr. Haruno took one glance at her and smiled. She seemed like a decent young woman. He held his hand out and Ino shook it.

"Well, come along," he said, "I got my car right outside!" He went over to the girls' bags and began carrying the heavy looking ones. "Girls, can you take the rolling suitcases?" Seeing the girls nod their heads, he began walking in the direction to his car. The girls followed in tow.

"So, Ino, are you going to stay with us?" he asked.

"If it's alright with you, sir!" she said joyously. He nodded his head and continued towards his car. Less than five minutes later, he found it. He stood next to a dark green, four door Honda as he waited for the girls to get to that point. Taking the girls' luggage, he popped open the trunk and put them all in and shut the trunk after he was done.

"Go on in, girls, the doors are unlocked" he said. Sakura, like natural instinct went to the front passenger seat while Ino took the back behind Sakura's seat. Mr. Haruno got in the driver's seat and started the car up. With less than 10 minutes, he was already on his way to the freeway. Off to his house they go!

Somewhere else in Konoha

"Ne, Teme?" a blonde boy said as he sat down waiting for his ramen to show up.

"Hm?" a sound coming from the boy next to him.

"I can't believe it's almost going to be a year with Ami," Naruto said, "what are you going to do for her?"

Sasuke kept his head down. True, it's almost going to be a year with her, but that doesn't mean he liked her anymore than he did before which was zero interest.

"She's probably expecting you to do something special," Naruto told him as he began eating the ramen that was placed in front of him. He took a minute to admire its beauty and then inhaled its sweet miso aroma. Ramen, get ready to be devoured! He exclaimed loudly in his head as he broke apart a pair of chopsticks. Ready, get set… go! He told himself as he dug his chopsticks deep into the bowl only to come out with a giant ball of noodles. He ate loudly and nosily, but the people there already got used to his habits that they didn't even have to look over to know it was Naruto making all that noise.

"Hm," Sasuke said.

Naruto just sat there slurping his noodles.
